Blood and Roses 36.4: Sunset Proposal
CHAPTER 36.4Sunset ProposalDESPITE THE PROBLEMS that they encountered after donating to the evacuees, Lucas and Selene moved on and decided on where should they go during their vacation. Naisip ni Lucas na pumunta sila sa kalapit probinsya dahil kahit na tinamaan din iyon ng bagyo, hindi naman malala ang naging pagkasira roon. Magdu-donate lang din sila sandali pero pagkatapos noon ay mamamasyal sila ni Selene. That province is a lot quieter too, so Lucas would like to assume that they’ll enjoy a peaceful and harmonious vacation.Habang nasa kotse sila, hindi maiwasan ni Lucas na mapatitig kay Selene habang nakamasid ito sa labas ng sasakyan at pinagmamasdan ang maganda’t maaliwalas na senaryo sa labas nila. Dahil iba ang atmospera sa probinsya kung ikukumpara sa siyudad, mas preskong tignan ang kapaligiran dito. Selene looked relaxed while staring out the window, too. Ang sarap pagmasdan ng dalaga—but that’s not the reason why Lucas was watching her intently!May kung ano sa mga ma
Blood and Roses 36.5: Courtship, if Possible
CHAPTER 36.5Courtship, if possibleHINDI NAIWASAN NI Lucas ang bumuntong hininga noong oras na mapagtanto niyang ang bilis talaga lumipas ng panahon at wala siyang laban dito. Gusto pa sana niyang makasama nang matagal si Selene ngunit habang iyon din ang ginagawa niya, pakiramdam ni Lucas ay mas lalo lamang bumibilis lumipad ang oras. Siguro dahil natutuwa siya t’wing kasama niya si Selene? Narinig kasi ni Lucas na t’wing gusto niya raw ang taong kasama ay mas hindi niya mapapansing tapos na pala ang oras na dapat silang magkasama.Proven and tested din dahil pagkatapos nilang enjoy-in ni Selene ang bakasyon nila sa probinsya’y namulat na lamang si Lucas na nakabalik na sila sa kastilyo ng kaharian. It made him gulp. Nabitin siya na kasama ang dalaga. Parang hindi niya naramdamang may ginawa nga sila habang bakasyon nila.Then, he sweat dropped. Mayroon siyang vivid images sa utak niya kung ano ang mga paborito niyang senaryo na magkasama sila ni Selene pero wala siyang nakuhang lit
Blood and Roses 37.1: What Isn't Planned
CHAPTER 37.1What Isn’t PlannedNAKANGIWING NAKAMASID SI Lucas kay Selene noong masaya nitong batiin si Merlin na noo’y hinihintay pala ang pagdating nila. Pinakinggan ni Lucas ang usapan ng mga ito at ang ibang narinig niya ay kung kumusta ang bakasyon nito sa kaharian ng Vintress. Mabilis namang sinabi ni Selene na nagbakasyon ito na kasama siya kaya... Noong biglang lumingon sa kanya si Merlin at tapunan siya ng masamang tingin, mabilis siyang nag-iwas ng tingin.And it didn’t even help that Selene also looked his way but unlike the mage, she looked clueless. Confusion danced in her beautiful eyes and all Lucas could do then was to exchange smiles with her, to somehow ease her ‘worries’, if there is anything.“Ngayong nabanggit mo ‘yan, Mahal na Prinsesa, ngayon ko lang napansin na kasama mo ang Prinsipe Lucas. Maraming salamat sa paghatid kay Prinsesa Selene,” sarkastiko at tila ba nanggigigil na sabi ni Merlin.Pilit ding napangiti si Lucas noong makitang parang ang hostile pakin
Blood and Roses 37.2: Unwanted Companion
CHAPTER 37.2Unwanted CompanionPIKIT ANG MGA MATANG nagtitimpi si Lucas habang pinakikinggan si Merlin na makipag-usap kay Selene. Matapos mag-aya ng dalaga na gusto raw nitong magtsaa raw sila sa parte ng hardin na una nitong ipinaayos. Kumikibot na ang isang kilay niya noong patuloy na magsalita ang mahiko patungkol sa mga narating nito sa buhay at ang mga bagay na natapos nito sa loob ng dalawang linggong pagkawala ni Selene.Maging ang ‘verdict’ na ipinapataw nito sa dating Hari na si Morfran Demelza at sa dating Prinsesa Luan, hindi tumigil si Merlin sa pagkukwento hanggang sa mabanggit nito ang mga maharlikang patuloy na sumusuporta sa mga Demelza. Of course, Merlin was backed up by the remaining vampire nobles either. Those who played their games safely by remaining neutral and keeping their mouths shut. Kaya mabilis na naka-recover ang kaharian ng Izquierdo dahil maraming tumulong kay Merlin.“Merlin...” Selene trailed off. Her voice still sounded normal, as if there wasn’t a
Blood and Roses 37.3: Morfran’s Escape
CHAPTER 37.3Morfran’s EscapeTHERE WAS A HUGE problem two days after they spoke about the previous King, Morfran Demelza. One that even Lucas hadn’t surprised to happen since Izquierdo Kingdom has regained its Princess and its previously lost army.Maybe one of them accidentally manifested for an accident to happen, or the universe just chose to orchestrate another problem for them to get stressed. Witherway, Lucas would love to have a sip of some blood right now since he has a bad feeling about how this day would escalate.“Haring Merlin, mayroon tayong problema!” Ito ang klase ng bungad na sinabi sa kanila ng isa sa mga kawal na noo’y naghihikaos huminga.And he’s right. He doesn’t have a gut feeling but everything just didn’t sit right since he woke up. And there it is, the problem. Shít.Nasa silid-aralan sila noon nina Merlin at Selene, nag-uusap usap kung paano ba mas mapapabuti ang pagpapatakbo sa kaharian ng Izquierdo gayong katatapos lamang ng giyera at kababawi lamang nila
Blood and Roses 37.4: The Search
Chapter 37.4The SearchNOONG BUMALIK SI Merlin sa tabi nila, hindi maganda ang itsura ng mahiko. He looked pale, stressed, and problematic. As if a bucket of problem was just poured on his head – and maybe that was really the case, given how the situation unfolded in front of them when they least expected it. Mukhang hindi maganda ang naging resulta ng imbestigasyon at maging si Selene na noo’y nananahimik lamang, tila ba hindi natutuwa sa kung anong maririnig nito.Because when Lucas took a glimpse over to her direction, she looked as if she’s expecting nothing but a bad news – and it’ll forever irk her. Natatakot siya para kay Merlin pero sigurado rin si Lucas na hindi aawayin ng dalaga ang mahiko lalo na’t mabilis itong nag-participate sa imbestigasyon ng pagkawala ni Morfran Demelza.“Kumusta?” simpleng tanong ni Selene rito. Her voice sounded stern and it hinted agitation – lack of patience, probably. But she kept quiet after asking a one-word question. She just crossed her arms
Blood and Roses 37.5: The Last String
CHAPTER 37.5The Last String“THEY REFUSED THE order to investigate them, didn’t they?” was what Selene told them as she approached them.Parehong nagulat sina Lucas at Merlin noon. Hindi nila alam pareho kung paanong nakarating ang balita sa dalaga at kung paano nito nalamang mayroong dumating na sulat mula sa Magic Tower samantalang mahigpit nila iyong itinago rito. They even found a safe spot around the gazeebo to discuss their next step since they didn’t want the last string to be triggered – Selene, but it seems like... She found out the plan.Masama ang tinging itinapon sa kanila ng dalaga at pareho silang nag-iwas ng mga mata mula rito. He even distanced himself from Merlin. Wala siyang planong umaktong inosente dahil lalabas at lalabas din ang katotohanang guilty sila pareho ng mahiko pero kung mayroong magpapaliwanag, mas maganda kung si Merlin.Ayaw niyang kaaway si Selene.“Ma—Mahal na Prinsesa! Anong ginagawa mo rito?” kabadong tanong ni Merlin kay Selene ‘tsaka nito mabil
Blood and Roses 38.1: Madness
CHAPTER 38.1MadnessTHEY MIGHT HAVE lowered their guards down. Lucas did not really catch up after Selene opened the door that leads to the Grand Magus’ room. But for as long as he can remember, dark magic began to get released from that cursed room after Selene busted that door open after it’s been locked. Muntik pang mahila roon si Selene, she was supposed to be engulfed. Ngunit mabilis na nahabol ni Lucas ang dalaga’t nahila ito mula sa awrang humihila rito.“Ayos ka lang ba?!” natatarantang tanong ni Lucas sa dalaga. Dinala niya ito sa parte ng pasilyo kung saan ang palagay niya’y ligtas silang dalawa.Meanwhile, Selene looked surprised. Maging ito ay hindi inaasahan kung anong bumati sa kanila. “I didn’t expect them to be this... desperate.”“That’s not the problem right now. We have to get out of this place, Selene.”“What? Pero nasa loob si Morfran Demelza at ang Grand Magus!”“Don’t be stubborn! You’ve been like this for the past few days! Alam kong natutuliro ka’t nag-aalala
